[QUOTE="hopeless, post: 5758528, member: 36349"] [b]Okay...[/b] But on the reverse side wouldn't putting a limit on the gp also apply when the PCs are looking to sell magic items they either don't want or need to sell to pay for certain other items such as upgrading armour and weapons? I recall the facebook game had a rule where selling items to the shop cost them a fifth less than what they would sell them for. Would the PCs be willing to tolerate that in an actual game rather than a facebook one? Pathfinder as i recall starts off with masterwork items first and then going to enchanted items perhaps it will require completing quests to get those higher plused items since the only ones who can create them are high level spellcasters'? Unless you find them yourselves but that leaves other options for the dm after all where did these items come from? Who created them? Did they belong to an order who as soon as they know the PCs have them will hunt them down to demand their return after all from their view its their property! How would the settlements regard adventurers' and their loot? Would the Pcs care for staying in one location they regard as home or risk moving around not knowing if the next place they arrive at will regard them as bandits or a resource to be plundered or dealt with carefully because they either are being run by a bad guy or seek to use them to remove a problem of their own and aren't interested in paying a PCs usually high asking price?
